Ok, I have two sisters. My elder sister has a daughter, 6 years old now. Both my sisiters are married.

Last time, I visited my elder sisiter. She asked her daughter to pass me some money. Then 6-year old girl asked my mother and said to me: "Why are you the pooriest? It is you who do not have home."

Feel really sad~~

    Whoa? I can't believe such young lad would say that in your face.
    I can't afford to hear that from a child. I guess there must be somebody who taught that to her.
    Remember, at the first 6th year of a child, her/ his belief and manner is being developed. So I suggest to take that into attention of her mother to guide her properly.

    Anyhow, don't take it seriously, she's just a child.

    Yeah, I know I can not take this seriously. She is just a child. Maybe people have high IQ these days. Little girls would sometimes tell like an aldult.

    One story also about that little girl. That time she was about 4 years old. All my uncles had built the second floor for their houses. Ours was tile roofed house. She then said to my mother: They can go upstairs to have dinner. Ours is tile roofed. Then, shall we go have dinner on the tile roofed?


    Little girls and boys are smart these days.

    Whoa! That's so mean! That little girl will surely cannot make some good friends, swear.
    I believe in good parental guidance, it's very effective and the environment is a big factor as well. I bet there's no heat argument happening in their house or she's not hearing offensive words and seeing anything rude rude.

    I know children of this generation are pretty advance smart, however, they're still child needy of guidance no matter how intelligent / gifted they are.

    It is expected from schoolaged children to act this way. Its part of their growth and development. At this stage they see the opposite sex as a competitor or rival that's why she said that to you personally.

    But one thing for sure is that someone has taught her that words and she acted that way. DOnt think about it man,

    What does that have to do with marriage? It's about money. Also, it strikes me as silly and even little bit shallow to feel sad about it. Just make money instead of dragging yourself down with envy and other negative thoughts.

      No money? So the site in your signature belongs to someone else?

        Pardon me if I'm speaking out of place - but I seem to be noticing a lot of what looks like to me to be "fake" conversations going on in here. It's usually between two people w/ low post counts - but the exact same type of language and dialect. And one of them usually has keyword links in their signature. Again if I'm wrong (and I have been in the past) I apologize.

    To person above me. We are not related, just timely when I was lurking around this thread caught my attention. If you think we are fooling around, feel free to report us.
    Also, for all I know forum is about interaction, I keep track of threads I subscribed, so what's the matter with it? Also I'm not after the post count. This is what I hate for being newbie in a forum, people will actually think something about you, when all you did is answered a post. Also, post count is not always the basis to judge a member. Anyway, knock it off.
